Love 'em or hate 'em, car park attendants can't be ignored!

Throughout the game you need to collect certain items to help you later on but be choosy as not all items will help you. If Chubby is successful in the mission through the screens and weighs in at one ton, his reward will be to go home to Mrs. Gristle for a good fry up or a steak and kidney pie followed by Spotted Dick.
